Abstract:BackgroundBisphenol-A (BPA) is a chemical component of plastics, polycarbonates, and epoxy resins making it an environmentally ubiquitous chemical. Its toxicity has been linked to several disorders including neurological disorders. Gallic acid (GA) and Ascorbic acid (AA) are both antioxidants that have been reported to have neuroprotective effects. We therefore investigated the neuroprotective effects of GA and AA on BPA-induced neurotoxicity.Forty-eight (48) Wistar rats were grouped into Control, BPA, BPA+AA,… Show more
